An extra homeschool poem-of-the-week, from Emily Dickinson, for Memorial Day.
After a hundred years
Nobody knows the Place
Agony that enacted there
Motionless as PeaceWeeds triumphant ranged
Strangers strolled and spelled
At the lone Orthography
Of the Elder DeadWinds of Summer Fields
Recollect the way —
Instinct picking up the Key
Dropped by memory —
What other wonderful words have you studied in your homeschool this Leo Term?
